death & destruction
Trump is inciting violence again.
The posting after midnight on Truth Social, Trump’s social media platform, was his latest — and most explicit — allusion to violence that could follow an indictment stemming from an investigation led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D), whom Trump called a “degenerate psychopath.”
Trump wrote: “What kind of person can charge another person, in this case a former President of the United States, who got more votes than any sitting President in history, and leading candidate (by far!) for the Republican Party nomination, with a Crime, when it is known by all that NO Crime has been committed, & also known that potential death & destruction in such a false charge could be catastrophic for our Country?”
The stupidity of the writing always makes my teeth hurt. All those clumsy interjections in the endless run-on sentence, and “when it is known by all” instead of “when everyone knows,” and the random capitalization of Words, and the person v person, and the exclamation point in the middle of the run-on sentence – ow ow ow my teeth.
In a post on Thursday, Trump criticized those who have called for his supporters to remain peaceful.
Attaboy. Let’s have more violence!
“TFG” is so much more succinct.
I’m surprised he didn’t mention the crowds at his inauguration.
There could be record crowds at his trials, inside the court and out. The bigly-est EVER! Throngs in the streets as far as the eye can see!
This is not the first time that Trump has incited violence. He has repeatedly threatened to “open up the libel laws” to sue journalists and has repeatedly attacked the “fake news” media. He has also called for his supporters to “knock the crap” out of protesters. This is not the behavior of a leader who is looking to build bridges, but instead, to incite violence.
